  All: Oh hey! Great to see you again!
  Johnny: It’s great to be back!
  Olivia: Are you just back for a visit?
  Johnny: No! I’m staying!
  All: Hooray! Oh, great!
  Fadi: Great news!
  Johnny: Yeah. A position came up with my company back in London. I applied for it, and, well, here I am!
  Olivia: How did it go in China? Johnny: Great. It was really good to be back. I did really well in my job.
  Magda: You always talk about your job! Johnny: Hey! My career is important to me!
  Sarah (sighs): Oh, I’m a bit jealous of you. I’d love to go back home to visit my family and friends. I haven’t been back for ages now.
  Johnny: Yeah. You should go.
  Olivia: So you’re back 1)for good?
  Johnny: For a year, at least...then we’ll see!
  Harry: Oh, by the way, this is Bindyu. She’s my girlfriend.
  Johnny: Nice to meet you! (aside) Well done, Harry.
  Bindyu: Nice to meet you too.
  Fadi: We’ll have to start the football team again!(door open)
  All: Hi Carlos!
  Carlos: Oh, Hi! Hi Sarah!
  Sarah: Hello!
  Harry: Johnny. This is our new Brazilian friend, Carlos.
  Johnny: Hi Carlos! You’re Brazilian? You must be good at football. Join our team!
  Carlos: Erm, well, actually, I’m afraid I’m no good at football.
  Johnny: Well, you’ll 2)fit in with our team then!
  Carlos: Eh?
  Harry: Never mind, Carlos, it’s not important.
  Johnny: So what’s been going on here while I’ve been away?
  All: Er, well...hmmm...
  Harry: Lots of stuff.
  Johnny: Go on! I saw that banner in the window. What’s up? Why do you need to save the café?
  Olivia: And my shop.
  Harry: Well, did you see that building site just behind the café?
  Johnny: Yes, I did actually. It looks like they’re building something big, looks interesting.
  Olivia: Hmmm.
  Harry: Yeah, luxury flats.
  Olivia: The problem being.
  Tony: They want to knock down the café!
  Olivia: And my shop.
  Johnny: Oh no.
  Sarah: But don’t worry!
  Johnny: Why not?
  Harry: We got a campaign going—the banner in the window...
  Bindyu: And I wrote an article in the local paper!
  Sarah: We found they’re historic buildings, so it’s not legal to knock them down.
  Johnny: Don’t worry anyhow. I’m rich enough now! I could buy the café, and your shop Olivia, then do what I want!   Harry: Seriously!?
  Johnny: Er, well, no, actually, probably not. Just joking, you know. But I will be rich enough in a couple of years!
  Harry: Yeah, right.
  Carlos: Listen guys, that was what I came to talk to you about. At lunch today. I’m a caterer, Johnny, I make lunch for all the people who work on the building site next door.
  Johnny: I see.
  Carlos: Well, there were two of the top managers there.
  Olivia (interested): Oh yeah?
  Sarah: And?
  Carlos: Well, I didn’t listen to
  them, exactly.
  Sarah: Of course not!
  Carlos: No, but...I heard what they
  were saying...
  Olivia: And what were they
  saying?
  Carlos: They were saying...
  Tony: Oi! Johnny! Are you going
  to buy something? If you want
  to have a party go back to your
  house! I run a business here, you
  know.
  Johnny: Oh sorry, Tony—yeah, could I have a coffee please?
  Tony: That all?
  Olivia: Tony! Please. Carlos is going to tell us something really important.
  Tony: What?
  Olivia: That’s what we’re going to find out. Carlos, go on!
  Carlos: The managers, they were saying, that they know these buildings—the café, and your shop—they know they’re historic buildings, and they know they can’t knock them down.
  Magda: Yes. That’s what I found out. I told Bindyu. She put it in the paper.
  Carlos: Yes. They’ve read the newspaper, they said. They know there’s nothing they can do.
  Olivia: So?
  Magda: So?
  Harry: So?
  Tony: So?
  Carlos: So...they’re not going to knock them down! The campaign was a success! You’ve won!
